Request for Open Problems for Undergraduates http://dimacs.rutgers.edu/OPU Please consider contributing an open problem to the DIMACS "Open Problems for Undergraduates" web site. If you have an open problem, in your own area of research, which might be an appropriate research problem for undergraduates, please let us know. We have had a small selection of problems on the site for a number of years, which have generated a small bit of interest. We hope to spark new interest in this site through the help of researchers interested in undergraduate research. It works as follows: You submit a brief description of the problem, and it appears on the pages. Your name and email address are included with the problem, so that solutions can be sent to you. It is not intended that you enter into any sort of long-term or time-consuming research project with any student; but you may if you wish. Your problem will be removed any time you wish. Please consider this, as our site seems to be widely viewed by clever undergrads seeking good problems. Send submissions to: Rob Hochberg hochberg at dimacs.rutgers.edu If you include your own graphics, it will be appreciated; although Rob will be glad to generate them if needed. See the pages for an example of what we're looking for. http://dimacs.rutgers.edu/OPU Thank you. Fred Roberts Director of DIMACS =============================================================
